Love the spinach dip at restaurants like TGIFriday's and the Olive Garden? Make it at home with these easy-to-follow copycat recipes.

A healthier, low sodium version of homemade rice-a-roni made with no-salt seasoning and brown rice.

1 tablespoon butter or olive oil
1 1/2 cup converted brown rice
2 teaspoons no-salt seasoning (such as Mrs. Dash or sodium-free seasoned salt)
1 can (14.5 ounce size) chicken broth
1 1/2 cup water
Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the rice and cook, stirring frequently, until lightly browned, about 3 minutes.
Add the seasoning, chicken broth, and water. Bring the liquid to a boil. Cover the skillet and reduce the heat to a simmer. Let simmer for 25 minutes or until all the liquid is absorbed.
Fluff the rice with a fork and serve immediately.
